Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
Evvie’s POV:THREE YEARS AGOI had called Ethan when we finally crossed human territory. I needed to know how was Mom and Dad.When he broke the news, they were already looking for me. Dad had called the Alpha to send an entire search party out for me.Thankfully, Ethan stopped them just in time.Hearing my venture to the human side, they were devastated. Ethan said Mom cried for hours. Dad had punched the wall, leaving a visible crack on our wall that Ethan noted made the house shake.I felt the sudden adrenaline course through my veins. Panic and guilt took over me. And I almost wanted to go back.It was Pixie that snapped the fuck out of me.She had slapped me hard on the cheek, and reminded me why I came out here in the first place.Freedom.And she was right.It was about damn time I started thinking about myself and what’s good for me. But most of all, it was time to move on.Instead, I talked to my parents. As always, Mom lashed out at me, while Dad kept his silence until I expl

Evvie’s POV:Whoever was grabbing me cursed under his breath and let go of me abruptly.Now is my chance!I ripped the bag over my head into shreds. I found myself surrounded by the rogues, growling and snapping as they carefully watched my every move.My eyes darted to Pixie’s human form being held back by one of them, and Casey who was apparently knocked to the ground.The anger I felt deepened and I saw red.My wolf lurched at them, not caring that there were six of them and one of us.I was aiming for one of the rogues neck when the man whom we spotted in the diner appeared before me in a flash.I cursed as I was in no position to recoil.I felt my neck snap and my head hit the hard ground. My eyes were still open, but everything was a blue. The deafening sound of constant ringing filled my head. And the last thing I saw was Pixie as she dropped to the ground before the world turned a hundred shades darker.. . .I woke up and found myself naked. My body covered under a furry blan

Evvie’s POV:“Just one little thing.” I said, turning to him as I crossed my arms against my chest. “Was the kidnapping really necessary?”He smirked.“Where’s the fun without that?”I huffed and rolled my eyes at him. He chuckled deeply.From that moment on, my whole life began to change.Barrak trained us to become elite warriors under his command. In exchange for signing up in his training sessions as a new recruit, he paid us money. And I mean a lot of it. You could imagine the happiness in our eyes when he gave us our first paycheck before we even started to train. A whopping two-thousand dollars. Each!Pixie and I were above and over the moon and the first thing we did, was buy a new apartment for ourselves. We bought one with three-bedrooms that was closer to the pack.Not only was the Black Moon Pack huge with over a thousand occupants, probably even more, they were rich.So, we quit our jobs and urged Casey to do the same. Casey is a writer. Her affinity towards literature wa

Evvie’s POV:“Vi?” Pixie called out, but I was too much in a shock to answer.“It can’t be.” I whispered, staring down at the seal.There’s no mistaking it.I moved to open the letter when my cellphone rang from the counter.Pixie stood up and grabbed my phone before her eyes snapped to me. A hint of urgency tainted her eyes.“It’s Barrak.”My brows furrowed and I huffed. Of all times he could possibly call me… What the hell did he want at this time of day?I nodded to her like I suddenly lost the ability to speak. She nodded back and cleared her throat as she lifted the phone against her ear.“Yeah, boss?” She chirped with her usual cheery voice, but her face remained indifferent. It was a new sight, since Pixie rarely had any serious moments.I gripped the letter in my hands as I kept my eyes locked on Pixie.“Uhh… Sure.”She walked over and extended the phone to me.“He said he wants to talk to you. He knows you’re here.”‘By the way, he sent someone to follow you for the past few

Evvie’s POV:“What?” I whispered as pain slammed me in the chest.I watched as his eyes softened as he looked at me.“Vi…”“This is your guy!” I shouted, throwing my hands in the air. “I can’t do this!” I growled and turned my back at him.I stood from my seat.“I know this is hard for you.” He said. “But it’s going to be okay.” With my fists clenched on my sides, I turned to look at him.“I’m never going back.” I retorted. “And you can’t fucking make me.” I growled.Barrak’s face darkened. He didn’t like being disobeyed, but right now, I didn’t give a fuck.“Oh I think I fucking can.” He smirked before pulling out a letter from his inside pocket. And it looked exactly the same as the one that just arrived.“This looks any familiar to you?” He asked, waving the letter in the air.“Where did you get that?” I asked.“I found it this morning.” He continued, looking at me. “It says a new alpha has taken over Winter Mist Pack.”Just after he said those words, Pixie sauntered into the room

Zachary’s POV:“Daddy, daddy!”I whipped around at the sound of feet tapping against the wooden floor.Her curly red hair bounced lightly on her shoulders, framing her little face. She raised her big, blue eyes at me and put both her arms up, pouting.I chuckled, and I couldn’t help but find her cute. She always does this when she doesn’t get what she wants.“What’s wrong, baby?” I asked, tucking a strand of her curly hair behind her ear.“I want my cake.” She pouted and she shoved her fingers into her armpits.“Don’t you want to wait for your friends?” I asked.She looked at me then quickly looked away.“I don’t have friends.” She mumble, making my brow raise."Why so?"She lowered her gaze, suddenly finding interest in her fingers as she fiddled with her colored nails. "I'm a bastard."A growl rumbled through my chest, startling the little girl who looked up at me wide-eyed, and I cursed myself for making such a mistake."Hailey, listen to me." I cocked my head so that I was looking

I went straight to Gabriel’s office that same day and didn’t ask permission to enter so I could beat him into a pulp.He didn’t put up much of a fight. How could he? Despite having alpha blood, all he ever did was fuck around and complain. He was no alpha.He’s a coward.ONE YEAR AGO…Bloodlust swirled in my eyes as I barged my way into the pack house.I had purposely reversed onto his car before this, shattering the windshield of his beat-up Corolla then hopped out of my Jeep.“Gabriel!” I roared.Pack members turned wide-eyed to me, stopping whatever they were doing to make way.I kicked the door to his office. Splinters flew in the air just as he lifted his gaze to meet mine, filled with rage I could barely control.I launched myself at him, taking him aback as he held his hands up in defense.I grabbed him by the collar and punched him in his arrogant face. Then I yanked him over his desk.“You fucking coward!” I spat.“What the fuck, Zach!” He grumbled, spitting blood to the floo

Evvie’s POV:I’m going back.Pixie stared into my eyes and sighed.I saw Casey peek through the gap, curiosity building in her eyes. I exchanged glances with Pixie who she shook her head.“Going back where?” Casey asked, pulling the door further open and we looked at the only clueless human in our midst.“And who was that?” She asked, a shudder visibly snaking up her arms making her squeeze them in her grip as she stared into space. Her eyes shifting a shade darker as Barrak’s domineering frame cast upon her once again.“No one.” Pixie saved me from telling her the truth.Knowing Casey, she’d always had an interesting take on the world around her.You’d be surprised if I tell you she writes about werewolves. Romance, on top of that.Most humans believe we’re just some made up supernatural beings in lost myths. That we don’t exist. But some of them, like Casey, refused to believe it.Pixie and I would watch the twinkle in her eyes as she went on and on about werewolves, vampires, beast

E P I L O G U E .Casey's POVI fell for it. It's his fault, with those sparkling puppy eyes and cute little stance, I have turned completely vulnerable.But I didn't fall for it because I badly wanted him to apologize but because he looked serious. Like he really wanted to show me something. The reason why he went missing for hours. I tapped my heel, raising an eyebrow at his human state. I look around. There was no one here. Why are we here?“Well? What is it?” I asked, looking at him.He smiled, making me groan. Him and his damn smile makes me both feeling nauseous and weak in the knees.“I want you to meet someone,” he finally said.I furrowed my eyebrows. Meet someone?He pulled my hand, turning me around to face a…“A pile of rocks?” My eyebrow raised higher, staring at him weirdly.He chuckled and shook his head.“This is my dad’s grave. I buried him here.”Shocked, I turn to him with eyes as wide as bowling balls.“You… your dad? Oh Carlos, I’m so sorry.” For the second tim

Casey's POVKnock. Knock.I looked towards the door, my lips pressing into a thin line."Come in!" The door pushed open.As always, Evvie and Pixie walked inside the room. Their eyes widened, bigger than bowling balls, and their jaws dropped, gaping at me.I raised an eyebrow. "What? Is it bad?" I asked, casting a worried look to my dress as I smoothed it down."Are you kidding?" Pixie was the first to speak, as Evvie was still in a trance."You look amazing!" She beamed.I smiled."Absolutely gorgeous." Evvie nodded in agreement, snapping out of her trance.A wide grin spread on my face. "Thank you," I sighed, turning back to the mirror. "Is something wrong?" Pixie steps forward, a worried look on her face.For the nth time, I let out a sigh. "What if...this was a mistake? What if I'm not ready for this? What i--" "You stop that right now, my lady." Pixie marched forward, taking my wrists and gripping them firmly. "You are not going to your wedding with all those ridiculous though

Casey's POVThe Alpha led the way, and I followed closely behind him. Right now, we're back at the dungeons. The cells. How the hell did he get himself locked up back in here? He agreed to do the mission in exchange for freedom. I sighed."Just so you know, I didn't want to do this." The Alpha muttered.I nodded, but didn't speak."I had no choice. He was getting out of control." "But to put him back in that cell?" I snapped. I couldn't close my damn mouth to save my life. The Alpha stopped in his tracks, twirling on his heel to face me. The look in his eyes now is deadly."Listen, girl. This is also out of my control. I can't control him.""Why?"His eyes narrowed at me."You're the alpha." I added.He squinted at me before he sighed. He shook his head. "Not everything is as simple as you think." I tilted my head. I wondered what he meant by that when a guard rushed over to us."Alpha, he's losing it!" The man was panting, his eyes wide."Sedate him." I snapped my eyes to the Al

CHAPTER FORTY-NINECasey's POV"Hey, hey, sshhhh..." I could hear someone shushing me. I try to move. Try to get up. But my body was killing me. "Argh..." I groan, peeling my eyes open. It was Nita, staring at me right in the face.I knit my brows. "What are you doing here? I mean, what am I doing here?""It's okay. You're safe now." What is she talking about? I winced when a searing pain swept right through me as I tried to move. My mind was in a haze. Blinking, I take in my surroundings. I'm in a white room. Everything was white and the air smelt strongy of disinfectant, alcohol, and... blood?Then it snapped. The witch. Sorcerer or whatever. Lucas. Rogues. The kids. My breath hitched in my throat.Carlos. Oh, my god."Carlos!" I vaguely remember seeing his wolf breathing hard on the ground. Blood oozing off his stomach. I remember him taking the hit, when Lucas tried to pierce me with his magical glowing weapon. And then I remember... a whimper. His wolf, whimpering as he laye
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT
CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHTBrother...I didn't hear it wrong, did I? Yet, when his gaze flicked to me I saw the striking resemblance between them. There is no mistaking it.He's the little brother Carlos told me about. But I thought he said he died. Clearly, that was not the case at all.He's here, alive. And it's either he happens to be here or he is one of the rogues. And by the looks of it, he is one of them.Carlos stared at him all the time, and his hands were shaking. I could hear his heartbeat racing. The way he swallowed when he saw him for the first time. Some of the trackers behind me growled, but Carlos held up his hand in warning. Not to take action. That he had this under control.'Get the children to safety. I will deal with this.' He sent the message through the group link. All of us just froze.'Now!' The warning in his voice has become a real threat. It had everyone jolting up to go to move the children to safety. I, however, stayed in my spot unmoving.Something's not righ
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN
CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN Carlos’ POV Is it him? Is it really him? I can’t believe it. Even Vato became dead silent. Is it really our little brother? But that’s impossible. He died, years ago. I saw it happen with my own eyes. I stare gobsmacked at the man. His eyes were coral blue, something he’d gotten from our mother. His hair, jet black slicked back just like mine. He even has that same birthmark I remember him having as a child. I tried moving my lips, but they’re frozen as ice. “Lucas?” He smiled at Casey, but something about his expression felt different. Then he whips his gaze to me. Suddenly, he drops it. His eyes darkened, and I felt my blood run cold. TWENTY YEARS AGO… Blood. The air around me is filled with blood. Most belonging to my Dad, who had dropped dead on the ground before me. “Hmm,” I hear a rumbling sound. As I turn my head slowly, I realize I needed to look up to clash eyes with the figure I saw kill my Dad. My eyes raised, and my breath hit
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-SIX
CHAPTER FORTY-SIX Casey’s POVA strong roar ripped from my chest. It was Kaleesa. Pure rage surged through my veins, consuming every rational thought I had. The world blurred, the trees, the warehouse, everything fading as my vision tunneled in on the rogue.I launched forward, claws out, fangs bared. I could hear Carlos yelling my name behind me, but it was drowned out by the blood pounding in my ears. His warning had come too late. Rage had taken over, and I had no plans to stop.I barely felt the ground beneath me as I sprinted toward the rogue who’d kicked the child. He never even saw me coming. My claws tore through his back before he could react, a satisfying crunch of bone under my hands. He crumpled to the floor, and the child scrambled away, eyes wide with terror. The scent of blood filled my nostrils, but it wasn’t enough. I wanted more.Another rogue lunged at me from the side. I spun, grabbing him mid-air, slamming him into the ground with enough force to crack the concre

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVECasey’s POVLast night was horrific. I didn’t sleep at all. I don’t know what has gotten into me last night, but I now know I have gone too far.When Carlos stepped back, shoving me away in the process, shame washed over me like a bucket of ice cold water.He looked at me as if I had grown two heads, all because I tried to kiss him, which I now know was a mistake. I thought he wanted to. It turns out I thought wrong.I went too far, and he was not having it. He didn’t want me. He made that crystal clear from the very beginning, but still, I insisted. I have never felt so embarrassed in my entire life.It’s the third time he rejected me. The third time.How could I have been so stupid?I should have accepted his rejection, if I only knew it would be this painful the third time.Tears rolled down my cheeks as I turned around and ran off. I could hear him calling after me, but I never looked back.Danny tried to get it out of me a thousand times this morning. Each time
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR
CHAPTER FORTY-FOURCasey’s POV“What?” the question falls out of my lips before I could even stop it.Carlos’ eyes remain trained on me, neither of us willing to look away.He lets out a soft chuckle that makes my heart melt. “To be honest, I really don’t know either,”He leans back, shifting all his weight onto his hands as he plants them on the cold ground.Then he turns his head and looks at me in the eye with those damned, beautiful violet eyes. “There’s something about you, something I didn’t want to acknowledge.”My brow raised at him, “And what is that?”He smiled. That goddamn dazzling, devious smile that has me gawking at him in awe.“Sorry, but it’s my little secret, since, I gave you my only one,” he said, and winked at me.Heat immediately rushed to my face, and I feel my chest flush, making me want to cover myself tighter if only I didn’t feel so hot.“But hey, looks like I’m not the only one,” he said, his tone turning serious.I looked up at him and narrowed my eyes.Wh
